India - Independence Day flag hoisting in OMNOM

Join us on August 15th as we celebrate India's Independence Day right here in the UK. We'll together raise the Indian flag and sing to the tunes of the national anthem, followed by a chance to meet and mingle with fellow Indian expats from around the city over free refreshments, chai, and some light snacks.

These moments make us miss our home country even more, thus it will be a great opportunity for Indians living abroad to come together in the spirit of unity and community. People of all backgrounds are welcome at this free event to honour India's history and independence as well as the strong bond between India and the UK. Don't miss out on connecting with the Indian diaspora this Independence Day!

A popular song that captures beautifully the sentiment behind hosting this event with much joy & pride. Welcome one, welcome all to this celebration of freedom & unity.

ऐ वतन वतन मेरे आबाद रहे तू, मैं जहाँ रहूँ जहां में याद रहे तू - पहुँचूँ मैं जहाँ भी मेरी बुनियाद रहे तू, ऐ वतन मेरे वतन | MEANING Oh my country, may you be prosperous & happy. No matter where I am in this world, I always remember you . No matter what heights I attain, you still are my foundation.

वंदे मातरम् | MEANING I salute to you mother
